  • Inform Key Judgements Made by Ofsted
    Agenda Item * For publication Bedford Borough Council – off Agenda approval October 2013 Report by the Portfolio Holder for Education and the Executive Director for Children’s Services, Schools and Families Subject: ACCEPTANCE OF GRANT TO IMPLEMENT THE CHILDREN AND FAMILIES BILL 1. Executive Summary This report relates to implementation of the Children and Families Bill (2013) which is expected to become the Children and Families Act in September 2014. The Bill changes the statutory framework in relation to Children with Special Educational Needs (SEN). The Council will have a duty to develop and implement the new legislation for more than 700 young people with Statements of SEN in a significantly changed way. The new approach is called the Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) often referred to as the ‘single plan.’ The Local Authority will have a duty to publish a local offer, embed joint commissioning, offer personalised budgets, develop a key worker role and develop a new statementing process. In addition, the new legislation brings together two statutory frameworks for pre and post 16 and the Borough will therefore have to extend its responsibilities to assessing and monitoring Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP) for young people in education and training up to 25 years (Appendix A) The implementation of the single plan will inform key judgements made by Ofsted. It is critical that the council utilises this funding stream to deliver the change required. 2. Recommendations 2.1 The Mayor is requested to consider the report and, if satisfied, approve acceptance of the Grant which will provide capacity to prepare and deliver our new legal obligations.

With the ever increasing population and the need to travel it is not possible to build enough roads to tackle congestion. There is also the concern about climate change. Both these have brought the need to change travel habits into more sustainable ways such as walking, cycling, use of public transport and car sharing. 1.2 Sustainable travel can offer a form of physical activity that can improve health at any stage in life, from childhood through to old age and is cost effective. Where people are inactive, encouraging people to undertake sustainable travel such as walking and cycling will help contribute to the reduction of illnesses and diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and mental health. 1.3 Everyone who lives, works or travels in Luton has a part to play in reducing congestion and carbon emissions. 1.4 The strategic direction is covered in the Local Transport Plan and this Sustainable Travel Plan covers the implementation of the Sustainable Travel Strategy (walking, cycling and public transport) to enable Luton residents and visitors to make Smarter Choices when considering their mode of travel.

  • Dear Chief Executive, Planning Application Fees: The
    Simon Gallagher Director of Planning Department for Communities and Local Government Third Floor, Fry Building 2 Marsham Street London, SW1P 4DF www.communities.gov.uk Chief Executives of Local Planning Authorities in England 21 February 2017 [Via Email] Dear Chief Executive, Planning application fees: the Government’s offer ‘Fixing our broken housing market’ was published on 7 February 2017. It includes proposals for boosting local authority capacity and capability to deliver, improving the speed and quality with which planning cases are handled, while deterring unnecessary appeals. As set out paragraph 2.13 of the White Paper, developers consistently tell us that the lack of capacity and capability in planning departments is restricting their ability to get on site and build. Alongside funding, local authorities also report difficulties in recruiting and retaining planners and others with specialist skills. There may also be wider capacity and skills issues for local authorities. To boost local authority capacity and capability to deliver, paragraph 2.15 explained that the Government will increase nationally set planning fees. Local authorities will be able to increase fees from 20% from July 2017 if they commit to invest the additional fee income in their planning department. This letter invites you confirm your intention in relation to the fee increase. It is intended that the additional revenue should be retained by planning departments and that existing baseline and income assumptions will not be adjusted down as a result during this Parliament. This is an opportunity for all authorities to make improvements to their resourcing, leading to better services, improved performance, and greater capacity to deliver growth as set out in ‘Fixing our broken housing market’.
